Attendance systems have been rated as amongst the critical issues that reflect domain achievements, and their performances have contributed better to organisations, industries and universities compared with traditional methods that are time-consuming and inefficient. Different automatic identification technologies have become trends, and extensive research conducted and many applications produced to maximise technology features. To address issues related to attendance system technologies, including the advantages, schemes and methods and obstacles, we present a structured review of attendance management systems, with high potential for managing, recording and tracking the presence of users in different domains. Additionally, this study introduces a detailed literature survey schema for article categorisation. Out of the 204 identified papers, 90 were found relevant in the context of this review. The selected articles are comprehensively reviewed, criticised and assessed in accordance with Kitchenham's guidelines for systematic literature review. Lastly, we highlight the significant direction required for future research.

Data science and analytics represent one of the most emerging fields nowadays. Collecting, storing and analyzing the data are challenging issues in the field since they require the most advanced techniques and technologies. Data Warehouse and Data Marts represent some solutions for collecting, storing and accessing the data. Good Warehouse design leads to better analysis results. Among different application fields of the data, crime data is an important and complex discipline that contains a number of complex relationships between its contents, a wide range of applications and its crucial importance. The aim of the work in this paper is building an optimal Data warehouse for crime dataset using real crime data collected from the internet. Among the different DW modules available in this field galaxy module is used in this work. The data warehouse will support the decision-making process for lawmaker and police departments by understanding crime subjects, and statistics that allow them to track actions, foretell the probability of occurring crimes and efficiently use supplies which are inverted in this paper. The proposed design of the DW shows more reliability, better storing and accessing capabilities and lower anomalies among the other designs. The proposed design was supported with a crime database design to remove heterogonous of the data and to apply some preprocessing issues from which they require data is extracted, transformed and loaded (ETL) into the warehouse. Finally, more than six million high quality, clean, and preprocessed of crime records data are available for the researchers.

Information technology has played a vital factor in a competitive advantage for various business firms recently. Hence, catching up Investment of IT in most of the traditional industries for competitiveness purposes due to the relationship between organizational performance and IT use. In this study, attendance and management information system (AMIS) was presented in the industry field based on multi-modules. Modules are management information, time- scheduling and attendance, and employee self- service module. The system used VB.NET environment for programming perspective as well MS SQL server for database storage. The system is secure and robust recordkeeping, keep employee up to date via self- service access, easy to use (simplified) and powerful time and attendance, active work schedules to make an employee happy and keep workers in the loop, as well, review and exporting different reports for staff manager, supervisor, and employee such as absence, vacation, time-off, employee wages, and etc

Recently, students attendance have been considered as one of the crucial elements or issues that reflects the academic achievements and the performance contributed to any university compared to the traditional methods that impose time-consuming and inefficiency. Diverse automatic identification technologies have been more in vogue such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). An extensive research and several applications are produced to take maximum advantage of this technology and bring about some concerns. RFID is a wireless technology which uses to a purpose of identifying and tracking an object via radio waves to transfer data from an electronic tag, called RFID tag or label to send data to RFID reader. The current study focuses on proposing an RFID based Attendance Management System (AMS) and also information service system for an academic domain by using RFID technology in addition to the programmable Logic Circuit (such as Arduino), and web-based application. The proposed system aims to manage student’s attendance recording and provides the capabilities of tracking student absentee as well, supporting information services include students grading marks, daily timetable, lectures time and classroom numbers, and other student-related instructions provided by faculty department staff. Based on the results, the proposed attendance and information system is time-effective and it reduces the documentation efforts as well as, it does not have any power consumption. Besides, students attendance RFID based systems that have been proposed are also analyzed and criticized respect to systems functionalities and main findings. Future directions for further researchers are focused and identified.

Recently, Web applications have been increased significantly in online services for most ofthe activities in our animation that are based on Internet-enabled applications. However, ignoringprivacy and security aspects of the applications by web developers makes them attractive targets forsecurity issues. In this article, a proposed protective approach that includes three preventive mechanismsthat are: parameterized stored procedures, customized error messages, and encryption stored proceduresin SQL server to prevent the danger of Structured Query Language Injection Attacks (SQLIA) in storedprocedures. In addition, an analysis evaluation of the proposed protective approach with respect to theeffectiveness approach is conducted. The proposed protective approach was effectiveness due to itcapable of preventing the attacks of stored procedures SQLIAs efficiently.

The Information Technology Research and Development Center organized a workshop verification system for Documents by Profs. Haider Abd Ali and Ahmed Yassin. The workshop aims to provide the participants with the necessary skills to effectively manage and organize the verification system for documents in their Faculties. The University of Kufa has adopted the system since November of last year, and more than 25,000 documents have been uploaded to the system
